[quote who="Silverbeacher" reply="12" id="2003428"]For example, I see Sole Soul as the true successor of Mumblefratz and Iztok Bitenc; KzintiPatriarch may one day be able to at least claim parity, if not surpass, magnumaniac and wyndstar; and we still get jokes from Piznit and Dystopic.

[quote who="Cypher" reply="23" id="2003192"]BTW - Did Brad say when this GalCiv3 game would make its debut, or is it still in the early thought process? [/quote] Early thought. [quote who="dystopic" reply="22" id="2003191"]Cypher, the best thing you can do is chill. i'm not saying that because i'm opposed to drastic action, but because i've seen how SD and other groups of people react. it's a losing battle - and if you really piss off certain people, you could be banned f
[quote who="Cypher" reply="20" id="2003162"] Quoting Emperor_Seth, reply 19 Oh yeah, Brad said. That's cool, though I doubt they will get it out any time soon. BTW - I'm curious as to what you think I will do, Seth. Yes, I am obviously going to make a post, but I'm going to take it a little further then that. Let me put it to you this way - I am going to have a VERY long weekend. [/quote] Thought you were gonna
[quote who="Cypher" reply="18" id="2003141"] Quoting Emperor_Seth, reply 17 New Frontiers is a fan exspansion pack and Galciv 3 is the official Galciv sequel. Do we know for sure that SD will actually make a GalCiv3? [/quote] Oh yeah, Brad said.
[quote who="Cypher" reply="15" id="2003129"]Now for a not-so-serious post: I have heard alot about a GalCiv3. Is GalCiv3 the same as New Frontiers, or is it something completely different? ~ Cypher ~ [/quote] New Frontiers is a fan exspansion pack and Galciv 3 is the official Galciv sequel.
[quote who="Cypher" reply="14" id="2003124"]@ Everyone who reads this thread: I've been thinking long and hard today about the current state of the forums, the Metaverse, and the interest of gamers in Galactic Civilizations II. Here's what my thinking has showed me: Galactic Civilizations II is losing popularity and it is losing its dedicated fan-support. Something has to change. As I mentioned earlier, the state of GalCiv2 can be compared to the economy of America. It i
[quote who="dystopic" reply="11" id="2003085"]i think there will be a core of dedicated players for quite some time. however i don't think these forums will come back to life, as you say. that has a lot to do with several decisions stardock has made, most notibly the "cross-posting" across all their threads. those of us who are just here for one or two products fine it very un-nerving. [/quote] An example was in Febuary where Brad decided to post news about Sins of a Solar
[quote who="Cypher" reply="8" id="2003032"]I know that's what you meant. Don't get me wrong - TA is awesome. It just seems like alot of the strategies that players used for DL and DA got ripped to shreds by TA. I still love the game, though. BTW - you're right - the forum's updates were pointless. ~ Cypher ~ [/quote] Well that's the cons of having race specific tech trees and improvments plus an advanced AI, I am working on some strategies for TA.

[quote who="DSep" reply="9" id="2003030"] @seth: i just put you up there because i never got a chance to before. Besides, the fact that there may be some monkeys in the military of The Raiders is not an insult. They make great pirates because they're all brawn and no brain! I myself happen to be a human. -Dave [/quote] Eh it's alright also for the MV Mod, what colors are the Raiders ships. Cause I was thinking about black hull with purple trim, ya know to matc
[quote who="Cypher" reply="6" id="2003010"]I think it can be said that it is the result of neglect and too many pointless updates. I mean, seriously - the SDC crew basically killed every good strategy that was developed in DL and DA with their updates and with TA. That may have been what turned many of the senior players off of the game. Good point Seth. ~ Cypher ~ [/quote] I meant updates to the forums. TA was awsome.
[quote who="Cypher" reply="4" id="2002997"]Couldn't agree with you more, Seth. I think every GalCiv2 fan needs New Frontiers to come out, and soon. Like you said - for many reasons. ~ Cypher ~ [/quote] Yeah these forums are shit, they arethe resault of neglect and too much updates.
[quote who="Cypher" reply="2" id="2002987"]I'm not gonna lie - this page is gettin more and more depressing every time I check it. Most of you guys seem to think that the GalCiv2 craze is over. Have you ever stopped to think that maybe this is just like the US economy? It used to be really good, but now it sucks really bad. However, it'll eventually come around, and I hope the MV and forums (and the overall love of the game) will come back around, too. Stardock or whoever's in charge of makin
[quote who="KzintiPatriarch" reply="23" id="2002808"] Yeah the MV is still active, and I know there are games submitted to my empire very day. I hope they do fix it. Sentient species taste better... [/quote] I don't think they will.
[quote who="Sole Soul" reply="3" id="2002195"] Clearly, this is the time for me to start my own evil empire! None shall oppose us! ...wait, did I say that out loud? [/quote] Oh Soul.

[quote who="KzintiPatriarch" reply="1" id="2002181"]Hey Dsep, welcome back! An FYI to both of you though, the MV Empire rankings have not updated for about a week now, and I havent heard any reply when or if they intend to fix it. [/quote] I haven't played on the MV in a while so I didn't notice.
[quote who="DSep" reply="24" id="2002146"]The Raiders are back! After many months of inactiveness, i'm back to playing GC2 a bit! Join and now and we can rule the galaxy with an iron fist!...until i steal the fist and sell it...then we'll have to use a wood one! Long Live The Raiders! -Dave [/quote] So have returned. Your empire shall fall under the might iron fist of the Geckodon Alliance.
[quote who="KzintiPatriarch" reply="25" id="2001996"]I only played the first one long ago Seth, so I'm not real familiar with it. Sentient species taste better... [/quote] Try getting a Ps2 and try getting GTA III it's more easier. Anyways the one thing about GTA IV that I hate is the rap radio station plays all that mainstream crap.
Has anyone here ever played GTA IV? Cause it's really good and there are so many ways to get killed, examples: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vLiWkhfUqow
Well, my mom says that I'm allowed to play M rated games cause I'm more mature than most kids my age (I'm 14) , hell I'm even allowed to play Grand Theft Auto IV. Now look, your friend may not be mature enough to handle shooters and his parents might think so. -Seth
